Ingredients

6 servings

3 tbsp unsalted butter
Chef's tip
Use a stick or block-style dairy-free butter - not a soft tub spread - and swap one-for-one.
3 tbsp all-purpose flour
Chef's tip
Choose a gluten-free baking blend labeled 1:1 or cup-for-cup and use the same amount. Almond and coconut flour won't work the same way.
2 cups low-sodium chicken broth or turkey broth
2 tbsp heavy cream
Chef's tip
Use unsweetened dairy-free heavy cream in cooked sauces, soups, and ganache. For whipped uses, choose a product labeled whippable.
½ tsp onion powder
¼ tsp garlic powder
¼ tsp black pepper
salt, to taste
1 tsp fresh thyme leaves (optional)

Instructions

1
Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat until foamy and just beginning to subside, about 1 minute.
2
Add the flour all at once and whisk constantly for 1 to 2 minutes, until the roux turns a pale golden color and smells faintly nutty.
